This is a collection of some beautiful short stories by the author Smita Das Jain. Each story has their own theme and flow in different pace. They are like a bouquet of wildflowers creating a beautiful bunchwith different colours.
Each story portray some aspects of our lives with its intricacies described. The nuances of the relationship between the characters are well painted. Various emotions are touched from love, happiness, grief, guilt, hope, faith to humour and amicable feelings.
There are total eighteen such short tales that are pivoted around some mundane lives living creating extraordinary hues in the lives. The stories are thoughtful. Few again bring to us a feel of melancholy and nostalgia too. They leave almost an afterglow even after they have finished.
I really liked reading Rendezvous that is the very first story. Later the story Parched made me almost have tears in my eyes. I liked reading the story named "Forever Love" which was very different emotions attached to it and again few like 'If I remembered' , 'Go back to Home, Where you belong' and few more like these made their way to my heart.
